Critical Design Reseach

Physical Experiment: Form

The lip of the bottle similarly prevents the string from slipping off as the width of the hand prevents the bracelet from falling off the hand.

Sometimes, bracelets just glide over the hand like butter. But they usually never just slip off the hand that easily. In experimenting, I figured that it is the wider dimension of the hand compared to the bracelet opening which maintains the bracelet on around the wrist.

Form is an essential element of a bracelet and other types of jewelry. It is what allows for a distinction between how and where it can be placed on the human body.
